    If you cant hear the noise then it’s probably not what I was thinking. If it’s just the sewing machine chatter that’s just the injectors

    Ghibli Diesel due a service

    This is correct and a common issue. You have to reset the service due indicator under body computer and the oil life reset which is under engine. Anything newer than 2017 you need specific Maserati diagnostics to bypass the security box Maserati put in.

    HOW TO: Heater Matrix Repair

    I would need to look at it but maybe a simpler way is to disconnect the two pipes in the engine bay where they go through the bulkhead? You could then rig up a return pipe. If you do remove the glove box there is a triangular mounting plate directly under the heater matrix, if it’s wet or...

    HOW TO: Heater Matrix Repair

    They weep rather than gush so just take some 50/50 blue coolant/water mix…assuming you have blue and not pink. Did one last week, it’s pretty involved and you will need a medium 3 legged puller. Apart from that it’s all pain in the @ss bolts.

    Cold Start Noise

    It could be a failing solenoid actuator valve or a broken chain guide. I would need to hear it.

    Hi Seb, you press the > on the right hand of the steering wheel controls to flip between KM and MPH (or is it one of the other arrows....have a play, it will become clear). The windows...well, that is odd but it maybe wise to do another battery reset oh, and check you don't have the rear...

    CEL - Cam Position Sensor

    Pull the plug on each camcover of the variator solinoid and check for oil in the plug. Blast it with brake and clutch cleaner, clear the code and see if the code comes back. If so, swap the cam sensors on the rear of each camcover and check to see if the code changes. If not you could have a...
